Collaboration

Hello friends! So I've been hinting at big things going on in my life, and one that I'm excited to share with you is a collaboration with Matt's YouTube channel.


I'll be helping Matt create videos of tech products, photography, tutorials, and more. Creating videos and making movies is something I am very passionate about, and I'm excited to join the YouTube community!

Here's my first video about the ColcaSac Chevron Macbook Sleeve. Enjoy!

iPhone Photo Apps

Hello friends. I've been having fun playing with the photo apps on my iPhone 4. It really has great photo capabilities--and as Matthew always says, the best camera is the one you have with you. So here are some of my favorites:
So, these are the apps in my photo folder. Today, I'll talk about Camera+, Diptic, Pixlr-o-matic, and of course Instagram.
Camera+ is great for photo editing. It allows you to crop, color correct, add fun borders, and apply effects. It also has a built-in photo capture capability that allows you to focus and adjust the exposure.
Camera+ costs $.99, and the Analog Effects folder is an additional $.99. Totally worth it.
Pixlr-o-matic is another great photo-editing app. It has so many great vignettes and frames that it is often challenging to select a favorite! Bonus: it's free!
Diptic is a fun app with built-in layouts so you can have two images in the same picture. It lets me mix things up, and I'm into it. Cost is $1.99 ($300 phone, no problem, but a $2 app--outrageous!) but it's worth it.
Diptic photos always come out square, which is great because that's the format Instagram posts in.
Ah, Instagram--my new favorite pastime. It allows you to zoom and crop photos (always in a square), and apply 15 styles to your photographs. It's an easy photo-sharing app that will also link to your Twitter, Facebook, and more. It's free and joyous--highly recommended.
So go forth, capture some memories, and post them for the world to see!

Do you use any of these? What do you think of them? And what other apps do you like?

What happens when you let a girl play with your toys

So a great thing about having a fiance who is into technology is that whenever he upgrades, I get to steal his old things. Here are a few shots of my current desktop set-up.
And here is a close-up of my wallpaper (one of my favorites pieces by Viet-My Bui. The girl is an artistic genius. The icons are courtesy of AzureSol. deviantART makes me happy!
Here is how Matt had his iMac configured (and an example of one of his typical wallpaper choices!):
